Fics like safe spaces

“Dad says you’re not feeling good,” Christopher said from beside him on the couch, causing a flash of panic as he’d almost forgotten he was there. The air cut his throat when he cleared it. He frowned, then tried for a smile as he glanced at him. “Uh, yeah, I guess not, but getting to see you is helping.” Christopher had a little scrunch to his nose, making his glasses shift. “Are you sick?” The question felt too big in his head as it bounced around, and his mind wandered back to the fire and Bobby. His teeth dug into his lip, scraping. They were cracked and rough, and he bit at the skin of his bottom one, catching an edge and peeling it a bit. It seemed like a thing he should be able to feel, but he couldn’t. Bobby was the one in the hospital, the person they should be worrying about, not him. --or-- Bobby gets hurt, and Buck can't cope, so he checks out, going numb, but Eddie, Chris, and a flame pull him back. Two of those things were healthy, and one was not.
